I like Rice and I would loved us to sign him, but I just don’t think he is a £100m player. I think I'm odd because I don't think Bellingham is all that either , it's like the Emperors new clothes .

How come it doesn’t affect his transfer fee, but it does affect Mount’s? I don’t get it. Rice is surely on a par with Mount in the market. Same age, profile etc. I actually prefer Mount as a player to Rice. I’d like them both but here we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what I mean. We can only wait to see how the new leadership performs when up against it e.g. going a goal down early doors against a fodder side away 😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As hugely overrated as Sancho was. I think Bellingham would be shown up for what he is (an ok player and nothing more than that) if he were to play in the Premier League. He might get away with his limitations in the slower paced, much less competitive Spanish league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when he took over from Brucie on the Generation game and everyone said he would bomb but he was absolutely brilliant and arguably even better than Bruce was. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a shame 🙁 Ultimately it’s his decision not to sign a new contract. Which is as good as saying he wants to leave. Now it turns out Man United are so committed to Mount joining them that they’re not willing to pay another 10m for him. I hope he takes note. The whole thing is a mess. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backbiter Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 As far as I can tell we still have a keeper, several left backs, a couple of midfielders, plus Sterling and Lukaku. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
